Equipment

  • 1 Cast Iron Skillet or Non-stick Pan
  • 1 9x13" Baking Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Chicken Breasts boneless and skinless
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • ¼ tsp Black Pepper
  • ⅓ cup Soft White Wheat Flour or all purpose flour
  • 2 Eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup Breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 3 tbsp Unsalted Butter, Lard, or Bacon Grease
  • 24 oz Marinara or Tomato sauce
  • 4 oz Mozzarella or Monterey Jack, sliced preferably fresh Mozzarella
  • ½ cup White cheddar or Provolone cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • ¼ cup Basil leaves, fresh
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 4 cups Spaghetti or Angel Hair pasta, cooked

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 450°F. Pound chicken with kitchen mallet to ½ inch thick. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
    4 Chicken Breasts, 1 tsp Salt, ¼ tsp Black Pepper
  • Place flour and beaten eggs in two separate bowls. Mix breadcrumbs and shredded parmesan cheese in a third bowl.
    ⅓ cup Soft White Wheat Flour, 2 Eggs, beaten, 1 cup Breadcrumbs, ½ cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • Coat chicken breasts in flour, then eggs, then breadcrumb mixture. Press down slightly so an adequate amount of breadcrumbs sticks to the meat. Set the chicken aside on a platter or plate.
  • In a cast iron skillet or non-stick pan, heat the olive oil and butter on medium heat until melted. Place the chicken breasts in the pan, two at a time to prevent crowding, and only cook the crust until golden brown. This shouldn't take longer than 2 minutes per side.
    2 tbsp Olive oil, 3 tbsp Unsalted Butter, Lard, or Bacon Grease
  • Remove chicken and place in a 9x13" baking pan lined with (or without) parchment paper. Top with Marinara sauce, Mozzarella, Parmesan, Cheddar, and Basil Leaves.
    24 oz Marinara or Tomato sauce, ¼ cup Basil leaves, fresh, 4 oz Mozzarella or Monterey Jack, sliced, ½ cup White cheddar or Provolone cheese, shredded, ½ cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • Drizzle olive oil on top and carefully place in preheated oven. Bake 15-20 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
    1 tbsp Olive oil
  • Plate each crispy baked chicken breast with spaghetti or angel hair pasta that has been generously coated with butter. Enjoy!
    4 cups Spaghetti or Angel Hair pasta, cooked
